Safer, very high power to weight ratio, better self discharge stability and good temperature range performance are the advantages. The most important one is of course the lack of massive environmental impact of water hungry lithium mining in dry environments and the geopolitical challenges evident in lithium sourcing.
There are a few electric vehicles with this chemistry and I predict it will replace lithium based chemistries in lower cost, smaller vehicles.
Sodium batteries are already commercially available and although their volumetric energy density and round trip efficiency is lower than lithium I think they are a promising alternative to lead acid and some lithium applications.
We have the same mechanism of citizen’s initiatives here in Finland and many of the initiatives get a big boost early and just before closing. See here for an example https://www.kansalaisaloite.fi/fi/aloite/11377
These are very amusing, keep it up!
I stand corrected, it does seem the more appropriate term.
Maybe Cambodia and Khmer Rouge? But not many.
So to my understanding Trump is proposing deportation as a means of punishment for violent crimes?
Obviously problematic, especially considering the lack of due process present in some other deportations.
Hey, I had been searching for a reasonably priced NC hosting for a while. I even considered a VPS from Hetzner but somehow didn’t find this. Thanks for pointing it out.
A more pertinent concern is having to work with the person whose behavior precipitated this reaction.
One person locking their milk makes them a weirdo. Three means someone else is.
Well, according to the article Nigeria has some existing solar production with more on the way. Probably there are better methods than an outright ban, but many countries are boosting local manufacturing with subsidies, tariffs or regulation.
Yea, I am not surprised given that the regular lane keep is still ghost braking when going under bridges.
Still, I am surprised how well they are doing, using only cameras.
A little while ago I met someone whose job is to worry about international affairs and they were worried about operating systems.
After that I started worrying about every end user device in Ukraine shutting down until peace was negotiated.
I heard it was Transnistria, but apparently it’s occupied by Russians?
Aside from the ones wrongfully detained in the US?
This is interesting. I agree that stealing isn’t the right category. Copyright infringement may be, but there needs to be a more specific question we are exploring.
Is it acceptable to make programmatic transformations of copyrighted source material without the copyright holder’s permission for your own work?
Is it acceptable to build a product which contains the copyrighted works of others without their permission? Is it different if the works contained in the product are programmatically transformed prior to distribution?
Should the copyright holders be compensated for this? Is their permission necessary?
The same questions apply to the use of someone’s voice or likeness in products or works.
He warned the European Union against restricting non-EU companies from European defence purchases, saying this would undermine NATO interoperability, slow Europe’s rearming, raise costs and stifle innovation.
It sounds like they are worried about their military industrial complex. The interoperability line is amusing, that’s what nato has STANAGs for, that different suppliers would be able to provide interoperable systems.
Depending on the explosive that should not help. Shaped charges are most effective if they explode a little distance away. It might help if it is a shrapnel based explosive.
Still you wouldn’t probably need a shaped charge to penetrate the armor on a BMP-2 which may explain this approach.
Edit: looking at it more, there is some kind of external armor assembly on the sides, but it doesn’t look like ERA tiles.
I was reading the Hail Mary Project by Andy Weir. She finished it on her own, so I must assume it was my reading.
Apparently this is a very sensitive and very selective thermal infrared imaging satellite which allows to build a volumetric temperature and humidity model of the atmosphere around Europe, Africa and surrounding regions. Swanky.
